I remember once in 2002 Justine wanted to kiss Capriati, but she didn't notice it and turned away, then a couple of seconds later she realized what was going on and came back, while Justine had turned away. In the end they managed to synchronize, though. :p

Any two players who are friends will usually kiss.

But sometimes even if they are friends, the loser just wants to get off court straight away so the winner doesn't know whether or not to kiss them.

I think Lena's air smooched some of the Russians.

The classic Lena moment for me was after a match where she walked off the court, high-fived her brother, high-fived her boyfriend, and gave Mommy Vera a bearhug.

Oh, Lena, Lena, Lena.

I still remember Justine kissing Amélie at the net after have won her first Masters title :tape: :tape: she obviously wanted to be more sympathic to Amélie after that Aussie Open retirement but Amélie did not expect that :lol:

Henin used to kiss her opponents she respects as Mauresmo, Kuznetsova (she even hugged her at the USO) , Clijsters(of course :lol: except when she was pissed :lol: ), sometimes Jankovic (not sure though), Davenport and Sharapova and other players that I don't remember now :o

Here`s a recent kiss between Vera Z and Vika after their semifinal match at Indian Wells.

Not a bad kiss, but it would`ve been better if Vika moved a little more to her right. ;)

Apr 14th, 2009, 04:55 AM

Kim does it practically after every match, whether she's friends with them or not (although most players on tour were her friend).

I hate the kisses where they both basically bump cheeks. That just says one or both of them doesn't want to kiss, or that one of them initiated it and the other awkwardly reciprocated haha.

Jankovic and Li always kiss, whatever result, but they are friends so it might be that. Also, it wasn't a kiss but it was cordial hug between Jelena and Ana after RG SF 2008. TBH kissing someone you respect or hold dear is popular in serbian culture, these two I guess are not fans of that ;)

Justine needed to kiss every opponent ---> she intended to screw them all by any underhanded method possible.

I remember when Venus had to pull out of the YEC in '02 with injury, Kim gave Venus kisses, much to the shock of Venus it has to be said :haha:

I remember Marion and Shahar kissing after a match, also Vika and Shahar in IW.

From what I see here kissing is just not an American thing. Europeans and South Americans greet by kissing, when informally, even if it's someone you've just met. I don't really know the cultural background behind it, but american & british people seem to have some boundary issues as far as physical contact concerns.

Well in France we kiss each other a lot.
When we arrive somewhere or leave, we kiss even those we don't know

The same applies for tennis matches between girls

Exactly - it's the standard European greeting between friends & acquaintances. In France it doesn't matter whether they're male or female, it's like a handshake or a high five to Americans. In a lot of countries, it's one on each cheek; in Belgium if I remember correctly, it's one on each cheek and then a third one on the original side, just for kicks. :p

Of course, you do realize it's only actually kissing if the people involved don't know the custom or have other things in mind...? (And I speak from experience, as I've become less ignorant than I used to be!) It's usually just an air kiss as you touch cheeks, that's all. That's why all those pics show lips hanging out there where they're not causing trouble! :lol:

I think it's a nice custom, actually. :)

Li and Azarenka kissed in the final of Gold Coast 08. Many players kiss after a final or after a close match.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I think alot of the time you wouldn't be sure how your opponent would react to it.
If you tried to kiss Masha, Camilla would come out of the crowd and slap you. If you tried to kiss Ivanovic, she would start sneezing due to her "allergy" ;)

A lot of these players want to kiss Flavia,I saw one sloppy kiss Dinara gave her at the Open:eek:Ithink a lot ofthese girls have a crush on Penneta.;)
